There are certain songs that strike chords deep inside my body. I can feel the song pulsing, living, breathing life.

It's almost as if if I have a set of strings tied tightly about that knot that forms in my throat where tears grow. The strings run along the length of my throat, wrap a couple loops around my heart, then stretch the length of my stomach. When the song plays, it plucks them all, vibrating and humming inside my chest.
